about selecting on stocks. I'm not to sure how to select one as well. I know there are those who use fundamental analysis to look at the P/E ration, balance sheet and stuff but i don't really know how to haha. So i let others do the work and i follow. So i look at the stocks people look at. which in a way means more volume. am i right?

i think stock is not an easy game if not everyone is a millionare i think for people is not very sure about stock is better to study about stock and then invest after they feel that they really know abt it

yup .. definitely need to know your stuff before going in. I lost a lot of money just because i underestimated the market and overestimated my skills

So now taking things slowly and more cautiously, which is much better

A trend is series of rising or declining prices over any lenght of time.

An uptrend is a market which seeks consistently higher prices over time.

A downtrend is a market which seeks consistently lower prices over time.

In a uptrend moving averages provide support to the price.

Whereas in a downtrend moving averages provide resistance to the price.

Hi, I am new to investing and learning to pick up some knowledge and skills in technical analysis.

What is the recommended MAs to use for uptrend and downtrend? Is it 30MA and 200MA as shown in the attachments?

Anyone has benefited from his/her broker's recommendation on stock tips and would like to recommend them to us? This will minimise the time to choose stocks to trade from our busy schedules. Thanks .

actually there's no recommendation......200MA is less sensitive, and 30MA is more sensitive. You can have any number you want, just depends on how sensitive you want your MA indicator to be (the higher the number the less sensitive it is). Usually for short-term trends u will take a more sensitive MA, and vice versa
